About Sweet Combat

Raised to run the Fang conglomerate, Fang Yu pushes back against her family's expectations by training as a boxer, and she captures a national title at eighteen. Ming Tian grows up poor, leaves school for three years to support his family, and later applies for a sports scholarship even though he has no formal training. When Fang Yu spots his raw athleticism at the academy, she becomes one of his earliest supporters. Their interactions move from rivalry and mentorship into a complicated attraction as they train, compete, and test personal limits, all while family pressure and social differences complicate the path ahead. Their bond grows through grueling training sessions and public matches that draw attention and pressure.
